Chapter 221: The Ne Is Missing 1
Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion
The person who eximed at this moment was none other than Ye Xiyuan who had a nervous expression on her face. More importantly, there was nothing around her neck. Just now, everyone saw her wear a diamond ne around her neck.
“Xiyuan, what’s going on?” Ye Li quickly went forward and saw that the diamond ne on Ye Xiyuan’s neck disappeared. “Where is your ne?”
The ne that Ye Xiyuan wore tonight was a gift from Young Master Nangong. It was priceless. But now, it was suddenly lost. This matter could not be settled so easily. This ne was especially custom-made for Ye Xiyuan by Young Master Nangong. Just this thought alone was not to be underestimated.
“Dad! I don’t know what happened either!” Ye Xiyuan said in a tearful voice. “Before I blew out the candles, I felt like someone was approaching me and then touching my neck. I thought it was just an illusion and didn’t expect that after the light came on, the ne on my neck was gone.”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was an uproar because Ye Xiyuan clearly implied that the person who stole the ne was a guest here.
This time, everyone was unhappy. They only came to attend the banquet and socialize, but now they were suspected of being thieves. Who could stand this? Moreover, although the ne was worth a lot of money, these people were also respected and wealthy figures. They had the ability to customize such a ne.
Ye Xiyuan was so anxious that she was about to cry. She looked at Nangong Xuyao and said apologetically, “Brother Nangong, I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of the ne you gave me. You gave it to me today, but I lost it.”
“It’s okay. It’s not your fault.” Nangong Xuyao went to Ye Xiyuan i s side andforted her. “You couldn’t have thought that someone would do such a thing. The person who stole the ne should be med, not you.”
After that, he looked around and said in a slightly authoritative voice, “Who took the ne away? Take it out now and I can let bygones be bygones.
Otherwise, when we report it to the police, it will not be easy to settle.”
Ye Leng’an, who had been watching everything from the side, gave an ironic smile.
In her previous life, Ye Xiyuan used this method to frame her. However, at that time, what Ye Xiyuan lost was not a ne but a rather expensive bracelet.
Ye Xiyuan used that ne probably because the value of the ne was higher!
If she didn’t guess wrongly, Ye Xiyuan’s ne should be in her bag right now. Later, there would definitely be someone putting forward a demand to search her bag.
Just as Ye Leng’an had expected, after Nangong Xuyao finished speaking, the guests remained silent. After all, no one who attended the banquetcked a ne. If they really liked it, they could just order one after going back. No one would do such a dishonorable thing.
However, at this moment, a sharp voice rose up.
“It must be Ye Lengan. When Xiyuan was cutting the cake just now, she even deliberately approached Xiyuan!” Qian Gumeng pointed at Ye Lengan and shouted, “Moreover, people who came here today are all rich and noble. Only
Ye Leng’an has the motive to steal the ne.”
For a moment, everyone’s eyes were riveted on Ye Lengan.
“Lengan, if you really took it, then please take it out!” Ye Xiyuan looked at Ye Leng’an, and there was a hint of pride in her eyes, but she still had a pleading look. “As long as you take it out, I can pretend that nothing happened. Also, I have other nes that you can choose from, but definitely not this one. This ne is very precious to me.”
The ne had already been ced in Ye Leng’an’s bag by the System. In front of such arge crowd, even if Ye Leng’an talked until she was blue in the face, she would not be absolved of responsibility.
After tonight, Ye Leng’an’s reputation would be in shreds. Of course, Ye Xiyuan was so understanding that she would never call the police. She wanted Ye Leng’an to live under everyone’s disdainful gaze.
Everyone thought that Ye Lengan would be panicking after the incident, regardless of whether she stole the ne or not..
